- Austin passionately delves into nine of his favorite underused trees. We're largely talking about trees that can live in Zone 7 and below, so keep that in mind and do your own research when determining if a tree will grow in your area.

I have a Pink Chimes Japanese Snowbell tree that started out as a whip. They do not grow extremely quickly (mine is now just three feet tall after four years) in my zone 7A area but the blooms are breathtaking to behold!
I live in zone 3 none of this relevant to me. We under-appreciate the understory trees!
Surprised you mentioned the japanese snowbell, but not the American version - Styrax americanus or Styrax grandifolia. Or are they more shrub than tree? Lately, I've been on a native kick and am slowly removing non-native plants from the yard in an effort to fix some of the ecosystem damages we've done over the decades. So, the more talk of natives, the better - especially when it comes to less well-known trees and shrubs. We have so many of them, yet everyone seems to have a fetish for the foreign.
More than half of your selected species are not native... Styrax japonicus from Japan, little leaf linden from europe, heptacodium, golden rain, chinese pistache, from china...
That is correct, Austin presents a few native selections in his overall presentation. That's why we called it "Underused Trees" and not "Underused Native Trees"
@@batesnursery he indicated at the end of the video that most of the trees featured in the video were native.
